Raised by a Pentecostal mother and a Catholic father, Greg Brainos quickly learned to hate religion, other kids, and Mavis Beacon. His high school principal tried to kill him. He was rejected by the Marines during a time when even homeless people weren't denied enlistment. It's safe to say that he has a gambling problem. Every woman he sleeps with has a mustache the next morning that wasn't there the night before.

Greg balances his tragically funny experiences with absurd observations and irreverent ideas of how the world should work. He's opened for such notables as Mike Birbiglia, Tommy Johnagin, and Kumail Nanjiani.
